Aventures of Tiny yellow bowl - A rainy day...



He had a bit of a rough start - discovering how small he is.
It is still not getting better.... today he looked at the sky and saw a rainy day coming.
And yes it was here in Rotterdam-Noord.






















Hopefully tomorrow the sun will shine.....

Let the glazing begin - Ceramics - Mini dishes.

We are nearing the end of the costum order.
Will be firing them soon - i'm curious how they will look and feel.
Soon i will present the final pieces...

De Eendracht - the next step - Ready for the bisc fire.

And here is the design of the Pepper, salt & oil set i'm working on.
All the mini dishes and oval plates are sponged ready for the first (bisc fire).
Only a small collection is photographed  - more then 50 mini dishes and 15 plates!

Glazing will be the next step....

Porcelain BIG mugs - New - with red and blue lino cut dots.

Oh i'm happy the way these lovely big hand build porcelain mugs turned out.
I have been experimenting with linoleum cutting. And started out with an easy funky
design - Dots - one mug in red and the other in blue.
And and etching technic was applied.
Funky aren't they.
Because of the thin porcelain slabs they are not totally round in the top diameter.
But that gives each mug it own character - no two are the same!!
